Veterinary Medical Center
Studio City, California
General Info
The Veterinary Medical Center in Studio City bases its care on pets' self-expression over time which enables proactive strategies to be implemented in homes across California. Initial appointments focus on comfort where pets freely explore the area and display reactions in their own time. Before initiating any physical examination, the veterinary team monitors subtle indicators such as eye movements, tail positioning, gait modifications, and pressure response. Healthcare examinations encompass assessments of joint movement, body water content, weight fluctuations, gum coloration, fur quality, and temperature control patterns. Owners become actively involved in monitoring their pets by recording morning routines sleep patterns vocal habits and any recent behavioral changes. The Veterinary Medical Center provides intricate treatment plans that address acute medical issues alongside surgical interventions while also managing seasonal health changes and chronic conditions. Support includes lab testing imaging referrals infection prevention senior animal protocols and emotionally-informed recovery checklists. Plans undergo strategic spacing and sequencing to minimize stress while ensuring the owner feels informed yet not overwhelmed particularly those handling multiple pets or intricate diagnoses. The essence of communication serves as the foundational element. After every visit notes are dispatched but optional follow-ups depend on pets' adjustment progress instead of fixed calendar alerts. The training program instructs owners to detect nuanced signals indicating either regression or progression to subsequent stages. Long-term care includes pacing choice-based scheduling and reassurance strategies. Veterinary Medical Center delivers veterinary care throughout Studio City and California using animal indications combined with family input to develop care plans that maintain stability compassion and informed decision-making from beginning to end.

I’ve been taking my dogs and cats here for 7 yrs and every time i go the price is more than what i payed before. They don’t show any discounts or take care of there ppl that have been with them for years. My last visit they tried to charge me $350 dollars for simple ear infection meds i left very disappointed because it’s all money with them. I ended up getting the $350 dollar meds for $80 dollars. This place is a rip off.

Dr. Steve kisses the pets..... and when we had to put my Marty down because of FIP there was such sadness in his eyes. It is not easy to go to the vet. In fact Sable is overdue but a doctor that cares makes a difference. He told me when there was no hope for Marty but with Dasher at 18 with kidney water bags he said Dash could still have quality life. I don't want someone to string me along.... you know just to make the bucks. There is a place down the street that said Dash had a need for a removal of some bump for a thousand and Dr. Steve said it was just a skin tag and it fell off HA!

Brought Lola, my Labor doodle for her yearly checkup. She just turned 4. We recently moved to Studio City and could not have been more thrilled and empressed by this clinic.
Plenty of parking in rear, entry to clinic spotless and very inviting.
Plenty of seating in waiting room and again, spotless, no odors.
The staff were great. Met with Dr. Steve. We have had dogs for our married life, over 50 yrs. Never have met a Vet who got on his knees to meet Lola face to face, love on her and put her at ease.
Thrilled to have picked the perfect clinic.

This is a great Vet Clinic. The doctors have always shown caring and genuine interest in my concerns and the well being of my dog. The staff have been thorough and communicate clearly with me about any next steps I need to take. Trust is a big issue for me and who is giving treatment or input for my pet. I trust them and that makes all the difference to me. I don't really know how their prices compare with other vets - medical costs for pets always seem really expensive to me no matter where I have gone.

Dr. Tolliver was incredibly patient going over options with me and giving me plenty of time and tissues to decide.
I was touched when the next morning, she personally called to ask me how my cat was doing. I didn't expect to get a handwritten sympathy card in the mail from Dr. Tolliver, filled with personal notes about my cat, yet I did. I was really moved by their compassion and needed yet another tissue.
